Description

Visual guage looking upstream from the center of the iron bridge. Pictures taken June 26-29 2006. Levels are 4,000cfs, 2,000cfs, 600cfs, and 300cfs.

At normal levels (~500 cfs), there are eddies to catch and a couple of waves to surf IF you can catch them on the fly.  Awesome wave near the bottom that will give a great, long ride if you can catch it.

At Ocoee release levels, this rapid is comparable to tablesaw in many ways, with a nice wave train, holes to punch or eddys to catch.  Make sure you note that the main flow folds directly onto the bridge pier which at this level is undercut.  Boats have been folded on the pier before.  Make a move to the right just before the pier if in the main flow, or run down the sides.
